Reminiscences of o Seattered Coterie---Vanderbilt Cred- ited with tho Loss of n Million. TFrom Our Own Corresnondent. Nrw Yonx, Oct, 1, 1873, A duller woelk than tho past has not beon Imown bero at this soason since 1867, EfFEOT OF TIE PANIO. Trado of all kinds Lias hoon noatly stagnant, and thousands of porsons havo oxporioncod dif- floulty in gotting money enough to go to market with, Tho rotail-shops, as well as wholesalo- sloros, have beon, and sro still, strikingly free from oustomers; pnd tho throng of vehicles of evory sort, which blocled up #lie businoss thor- oughfaros, littlo more than a fortnight sgo, is natonishingly diminished. An snomaly in this commorcial fuactivity {s tho numbor of strangors who steadily continuo to arrivo, Why thoy havo como, or what thoy want to do, whon tho residents aro folding tholr hands and waiting for finaucial restoration, isn mystory not to bosolved. Theymay bo intout upon gathoring tho hoped-for harvest of small prices which the panic has sown. How fitly tho thing is named! Whilo hardly unybody can got monoy, thoro is just abont ss muoh money in the city as thoro was a mounth ngo. Tho tronblo is, that it ia not in ciroulation, und monoy, lile blood, isof nouso whenit is not in that condition. Brown owes Jones; Jones owes Robinson ; Robinson owes Bmith; and ench and all of thom aro abundantly ablo to pay. But, hearing that tho monotary market is tight nod the futuro uncertain, thoy hold to thelr cnsh, and compol their croditors, big and littlo, to wait. Thoy won't even sgettlo with oach othor, but go about with doloful faces, and fngors clutching their pockot-books,complaining of hard times, and crosking of what may be. People aro uot poor, though they foel poor, which is woll-nigh as bad. Any ono who has bank-notes, just now, is anxious to keep tnem,— at lonst until things have sottled, « The conso- quenca i6, tho numbor of hoardera ia boyond com- utation, It is estimated that notless thau 310,000,000 is now withdrawn from cirouln- tion In tho Metropolis, simply on sccount of tho Eonm‘n.\ fooling of unensiness aud distrust. Ths anks, which aro the distributors of legal-ton-~ dors to tho mercsutilo community at largoe, are watching what thoy have, sud aro dotermined that it shull not bo loes. Lhe business public {8 waiting for them to do something; and, until they do somuthimf', the presont atringuncz will continue, It is highly probable that tho bonke will begin to pay chocks and to discount next wook. If they should, the floancial claseneas snd commoreial stagnation, so bitterly and nat~ urally complained of, must soon have their end. QUARLES BRADLAUGI, {ho Englich Republican, Las lectured horo twico, wnd has produced u very fuvorablo improesion. 1To does not _soem to bo, 80 far g his utterance {8 concerned, tho violent Radical and extrema Atheist which the Consorvative Britivh press has ropresonted bim. His position is woll fortified by facts aud principlos ; and hoe appears to bo yracticnl, tomperato, and Jogical. Bradlaugh ia not an orator in the genorally-roceived sonso. Though highly intelligent, it 1n monifest ho is not rogularly oducated —which i8 all tho battor, perhaps, for purely democratie influence, Helucks Ygliah,aud many of tho graces supposed to belong oloquence ; depending for eifect on his ear- nostness and tho strongth of his convictions. 1o {s unquestiouably o mau of power, and so {horough a botiever in all ho enys thas he ean hardly fail to imprees, and frequently to per- auado, lis pudionce, 1lis voico is strong, though not melodious, and sometimes pitched in rathor 100 high bke{. Albeit hio drops his h's, o hng none of the hesitating, slammering, drawling, manner that so \mfi]oum\tly charpoterizes tha msjority of English spoakors, Ho has the arb of intorcsting and holding his hoarers ; and ho doos this by his admirablo array of indisputablo fnots, and the porvading carucstucss of hig cxpréssion. 1lis dolivery is cnim, simple, and wall sustnined, with oceasional Lursts of forvid end impassioned rhetorie. After bear- ing him, it s casy to muder stand _why ho shonld bo so heartily disliked by tha priviloged classca of England audwhy he should huvo g0 largo and dovoted s following among the common people.

Ho was oxtrumc‘lynnfomumtn in_ his first at- tempt hero to answor Bradlaugh,—fairly o3~ linguishing himeelf instend of oxtinguishing bis opponent. The Republican's ' Please let tho representativo of the British aristocracy and the Ohurch of England bo heard,” struck tho rever- ond gontleman botweon wind and water, and erippled him_#o offectually that Lo has no yob recovered. Tho clergymun’s response wus to declnro tho statemont 4 * lie,” witha grent facial flush, and an excessivo acerbity of tomper. That little cscapedo was, doubtless, n revelation of Brindley's character. It rendered bhim ridiculous; and to be ridiculons in New York is almost ag irramedinbla g to bo ridiculous in Paris. The English divine had proparod himself to roply to_Bradlough in Lheological discussion; and, as Bradlaugh bag mado no allusion to tho- ology, Briudley's woodon guus can't bo fired off. " Brindley's chiof claim to recognition and renown appear to rost upon these wonderful achiovoments, copied from a circulor iseued by Limselt: * Yo was complimonted in tho Houso of Lords by tho Biohop of Ixotor ; in the Houso of Commons, by Lord Ashloy, and pro- sented to thoe Queen of England, at her Court of 8t, James, by the Earl of Bandon.” It is evi- dent from this that Brindloy is a Briton of n very opposito sort to Bradlaugh, Bonio porsons would nt};u him & pronounced enob and sycophant, {neopablo of any higher hnppiuces than tha conforred upon him by any titled noodlo or oringing gold-stick, ‘Tho Groat Agrarian, a8 ho Las been callod, conld wot do ‘botter, I should think, by way of oxposuro of his advorsory’s wonkness, than to Tmtu porpetually tho oxtract 1 Lisve given from tho clerical gentloman's cir- oular, EBrlmllay daes not know that he lelps Bradlaugh by pursuing aud lnhnrm;i\ to roefuto bim, Whe natural influenco from his conduct iis, that tho Republican must ho & most formida- blo foo of Chureh and Btate, and a torrible fel- low genorally, If O.

Its Advantages as Contrasted with Boarding. How a Kewly-Marriod Couple in Moderato Ciroumstances Can Secure a lome. The Amount of NMoney Necessary to Attain That Desirable End. How to furnish and how to keop Louso, is n quostion which naturally arises in_tho minds of vory many people who are now boarding, and woudering Low they aro over to hiavo n home of their own. Thoy look back to thoir boyhood's days, when housekeoping waa tho rule, and whon open-bandod hospitality added a charm to life, and think it strange that such a home as they then enjoyed caunot now be theirs, Thoy would like A PLACE OF THEIR OWN, where they conmld ask their friouds, and enjoy gorao of tho comfort and independonce attachod {o that kindof lifo,—a comfortand indepoudenco quite unaitainable even in tho highost-pricod Donrding-houee ; not to bo found anywhors, ox- copt in o first-class hotel, by tho msn of wunlim- itod meana ; but possible in the smallest mon- age to im \who sote abonk it rightly. 'o necomplish this, howaver, it will bo nsces- sary, ot tho start, if ono's moans oo wmall, to {urn the cold shonlder to Mrs. Grundy, and pay 1o heed to her impertinent or depreciatory re- marke. She will bo on hand with all her eneors, and, it wo listen, all hopo of bappiness i ot M ond, Thoe young couple who wonld really bogin lifoin on independent way must, thereforo, quite ignoro this busybody. Chicago, of all cities on this Contiaont, is perbaps TIE MOST TERFECTLY ADATTED for this quict manner of boginning life. It i not yot 8o old that all tracos af tho homo-lite of its earlier sottlors aro pnssod awsy. Itiston gront extont still o city of smnll houses, or houscs that can bo advantageously subdlivided; and thoro is abundant opportunity for these by- no-moans porfeot arrangements to be made moro available. ‘Why young people should be so anxious to Degin whero thoir fathors ave loft off, is & mys- tory; and that g0 many of thom stako thair bap- plncas upon the succossful accomplishment of guch o manner of boginning, is indeed a pity. Thoy lose half tho comfort of life in thus sac- rificing positive good to love of show. Wo are not about to preach that it ia altogether o simple or ecay undertaking to make such & start, but that it will lay the FOUNDATION OF TRUE WATPINISS, if properly entored upon, Js onr fim convictiou. It will roquire much forbearanco on both ides, gonuino good temper, and o disposition to laugh at tho mistakes which may arise from ignorance, or tho failures in other ways which result from thogame causecombined with inexperience.
